This means that you can set up a maximum work period for the Virtual Machines you create and they’ll expire or disable upon reaching the desired work period.

Offline Capabilities: If your network connection faces some unwelcomed issues, then you can make use of the advanced restrictions feature to work your Virtual Machines in offline mode for a couple of days before the need arrives to talk with the servers, in order to renew the status of the Virtual Machines.

Set Warnings: You can set up various warning messages for the users which also act as notifications. For instance, you can preset your Virtual Machines to display a custom message in order to warn the user ahead of the expiring period. Hence, on reaching closer to the expiring period, the user can be warned automatically. Also additional information can also be displayed with details on where you can find a new image series for future testing.

KVM Functionality: This allows the VMware Workstation to use up the entire real estate of your display by completely modifying the UI. Moreover, you can also assign various keyboard hot keys in order to move between active Virtual Machines any time. Also multi monitor feature ensures that you get a glance on all important data at any given time. Thus saving you time, effort and tension and allowing you to work smoothly.
